A Fresh Look, the Same Commitment to Care

Thanks to the generosity of the Smith Tieken Foundation, our office recently received a much-needed refresh, creating a more welcoming and calming environment for the thousands of children, teens, and families who walk through our doors each year. We’re also grateful to Total Home Improvement (with the services of Lake County Flooring and Precision Painting) for their excellent work and partial in-kind donation, helping bring this vision to life. A special shout-out to our volunteer furniture builders from Old National Bank: Brad Knebel, Desrie Colson, and Maria Morales, who rolled up their sleeves and assembled 12 couches, 24 chairs, and countless end tables to bring this project to life.

Because of this incredible community support, our refreshed space reflects the same care and dignity we strive to provide every day.

A few weeks ago, at Susanna Farms, we gathered for Positive Pumpkins, where each student was invited to write something positive about their fellow students on their chosen pumpkins. Reading these uplifting notes made everyone feel appreciated and encouraged. One student shared, “I enjoy coming. It makes me feel better than being sad or upset,” capturing the spirit of the experience. Even though many of them didn’t know each other well, their relationships have grown stronger, showing increased connection, comfort, and confidence within the group over the past few months.

This week, we’re highlighting the importance of creating safe and inclusive spaces, especially as we move through this season of change and reflection.

We're also incredibly grateful to the Smith Tieken Foundation for investing in the heart of our mission, and to Total Home Improvement for their care and craftsmanship in bringing that vision to life. Their combined support has not only revitalized our building but has helped shape a space where healing and hope can truly thrive.
